Through a mix of activities including prayer, workshops and outdoor exploring, 28 young people learnt more about themselves, their faiths, and others, exploring how to work as reconcilers and peacemakers to cross divides in their communities. £3,117from the Printers Inc Social Mobility Fund enabled the participation of four Cumbrian young people.
